Down with Corona!

Jun 24, 2020

MCLC’s staff is at it again! Check out another tune Aba Kowona (Get Rid of Corona) by Vagens.

Calling out to communities across La Gonave, this catchy number focuses on containing the virus. Vagens’ song calls out all the preventative methods, like washing hands and wearing a mask, but also stresses staying alive and self-preservation. “Who doesn’t want to live,” he asks, as he reminds the population that no one is exempt.

Who wants to die/ before their time / the number of people killed by Corona/ we can’t keep count/ on the hospital beds / you cannot even count on the doctor
